Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

"Lisa," Rangga suddenly called while grabbing Lisa's arm.

"Why?"

"Lis, it's better if I just come in with you. I'll say that the child is mine, so you won't have too much trouble explaining it to your mother. Your mother won't get really angry if I were to say it. Anyway, just act in front of her, I just don't want you to be labeled as an immoral bitch," Rangga explained.

The man was really kind to Lisa, but she was reluctant to involve Rangga into her personal problems. The thing is, even if it's just acting, saying that the child in her womb as his certainly has a very big risk. Kumala's reaction to Rangga can have a big impact on the man's life later.

Lisa then shook her head, rejecting Rangga's suggestion. Honestly, she is still not mentally ready to face her mother and admit that she is pregnant. She is still afraid that her mother's disease will recur. Especially if Rangga told her that the child in her womb was his.

"Thanks, I appreciate your help and good intentions, but sooner or later, my mother will definitely know this child is not yours. Just calm down, I can convince her. She's my own mother, I know what her character is," Lisa said quietly. Her eyes looked sad when she looked at Rangga's handsome face.

Rangga didn't say anything after Lisa said it to him.

With her remaining courage, Lisa stepped to the door and was about to knock on it. Her heart beat faster and faster, like a wild horse galloping in the desert.

Lisa paused for a moment, taking a deep breath then knocked firmly on the door.

A few moments later, she heard the sound of footsteps from behind the door and her mother's figure appeared in front of her not long after.

Without waiting for Kumala's greetings, Lisa immediately fell on her knees and kissed her mother's legs while crying and said, "Mother! Forgive me!"

Kumala was very shocked to see her eldest daughter suddenly kiss her feet. Lisa's spontaneous attitude made her even more suspicious. The middle-aged woman held Lisa's hands, helping her to get up and come face to face with her.

"What's the matter? Come on, Lisa..."

Lisa insisted that she didn't want to get up from where she was kneeling at this time. Tears started pouring in her eyes. She sobbed as she said, "I'm sorry, I've done something disappointing..."

Kumala looked at her eldest daughter who was still kneeling in front of her, her gaze fell on Lisa's belly, which was shockingly big and swelling. She was surprised to see her eldest daughter pregnant again!

Kumala's blood pressure seemed to rise dramatically at the sight, her heart began to beat violently fast, almost making her faint. "Lisa… Are you pregnant again? Who is the father of the child? Are you married?"

The flames of anger in Kumala's heart suddenly rose to her head. Seeing her eldest daughter who had not come home for a long time and did not give any news suddenly coming to her while pregnant really made her furious.

"Mom, I am not married yet... And this child..." She hadn't finished her sentence, but Kumala immediately shouted, "What!?! You're not married and pregnant!? Are you crazy !?"

Kumala was so angry that she lifted one of her palms and landed a hard slap on Lisa's cheek, giving her a red cheek.

Kumala pointed her finger right in front of Lisa's nose and said in a condescending tone, "Who is the father of this illegitimate child!? Why doesn't that irresponsible man marry you!?"

"Mom, this child is mine and I want to raise this child well. I'm sorry, I still can't tell you who the father is..."

"Don't call me mother! I'm not your mother! I'm sure you've been messing around with men in Bekasi until you get pregnant like this! I can't do anything about your lecherous behavior, Lisa! Are you not ashamed of what the neighbors will say seeing your belly this big? Don't you know how much shame your family has to endure for your bad deed?!" Kumala snapped as if Lisa was not her own child.

Hearing her sharp words, Lisa sobbed even more that her throat felt like it was choked. "Mother, I know it's all my fault. I have humiliated you in front of the neighbors, but this child is very important and I love them very much. I have to look after this child until it's born…"

"Don't talk anymore, Lisa. Let's go to a hospital and have it aborted! The illegitimate child in your womb can never be born! That kid will bring bad luck to you and our family. If the child is really born, you will be a single parent and you will be like me. Do you think it's easy to live as a woman with a child but no husband !?" Kumala snapped again.

Lisa really didn't expect her mother to tell her to abort her baby. She took her mother's legs with a sad face and said, "Mom! This child still has me! I don't want to abort this child!"

"What have I done that I deserve this kind of humiliation, Lisa !? Having a disobedient and immoral eldest daughter like you... I really can't stand you. I can still accept it if it's just countless failed relationships, but if you get pregnant like this? How do I explain to your neighbors and friends if I meet them someday!? Think of your family too, Lisa!" Kumala's eyes started to water, she couldn't stand her anger anymore.

Seeing her mother crying and disappointed broke Lisa's heart even more, but she had no other choice. Lisa must take responsibility for the baby she is carrying at this time. She still wants to be a mother, and she doesn't want the child in her womb to be aborted like her mother's request earlier.

Kumala then sat on the living room's chair while wiping her tears that were flowing profusely. She looked back at her eldest daughter's face with puffy eyes and said, "Tell me honestly, is Oscar the father?"

Lisa's heart suddenly seemed to stop for a moment when she heard Oscar's name was mentioned. She did not want to tell her mother even though the biological father even if she knew the answer was yes.

"Mom, I don't want to discuss who the father of the child is. I just want to look after and raise this child by myself."

Hearing Lisa's words just now, Kumala was getting even more angry and couldn't accept it. "You think it's easy to take care of a child by yourself? How will you take care of your child when they're born but you don't have a husband !? Who will buy the formula milk? Who will pay for the tuition fees when your child grows up? Do you think you can afford to pay it all alone!?"

"Mother, I know how difficult it is to take care of a child especially when it's done alone. I also know that you won't even recognize this child as your grandchild in the future. But I will continue to fight for the child in my womb. I will not give up and will always support this child!" Lisa said firmly without hesitation.

Kumala looked helpless, her hand that was ready to slap Lisa's face suddenly stopped in the air, unable to land it on her daughter's cheek. She took a deep breath and then put her hand down.

"Whatever, I don't care anymore. You are an adult, you already know what you have to do. You are getting more and more ignorant, you don't even want to listen to me. Go on, just do whatever you want! I'm not your mother anymore! You're nothing but a shame to the dignity of our family!" Kumala's voice sounded very disappointed. 

The woman then slammed shut the front door so hard that it made Lisa's heart pound.
